is not

shown.

Hold the microphone a few centimeters from the mouth, press the “Press to talk”

(PTT) switch and note that the Tx-LED is RED. Speak clearly across the face of the

microphone in a normal conversational manner.

In most systems it is important to wait a short time between pressing PTT and

commencing to speak. This ensures that the path is properly established and avoids

lost or distorted speech.

Use the correct operating procedure and keep transmissions short.

Release the PTT switch as soon as the message is finished.

Notes: 1. A channel may be programmed as “Receive-only” or “Transmit Inhibit” may be

programmed which disallows PTT while the radio is receiving a signal. A

continuous tone will be heard if PTT is disallowed.

2. A Transmit Limit Timer may be setup that limits a continuous transmission on a

channel. The last 10 seconds before the timer expires may be accompanied by

warning tones.

3. The radio may be programmed to send a Selcall (ANI) when the PTT is pressed

or released. This may introduce a short delay before the microphone is enabled or

after PTT is released.
